Nerida Cuddy is a singer songwriter from Central West NSW. Capturing stories in finely crafted lyrics and emotive melodies, she sings from the heart with both a social conscience and a sense of humour. She is an evocative, nuanced and spiritual songwriter whose songs reflect emotional depth, breathing the landscape of rural Australia. Her story-based concerts create space for connection and reflection, humour and fun. "Nerida's concert had us laughing, singing, choking up a bit... She is a gifted story teller and she owns *live*".
She has been in increasing demand as a performer over the past few years, with gigs, folk club and festival performances in NSW and Victoria, tours in the UK (2023) and outback NSW (2024) as well as shared songwriter concerts with the likes of Enda Kenny, Paul Colman, Bruce Watson and Fred Smith. For over 30 years, Nerida’s songs have connected her with people from all walks of life.
